"Since we did not have every day housekeeping (which is fine), I asked front desk for extra toilet paper rolls and they told me that they are not allowed to give any. Something about us only staying two nights, and apparently they’re not allowed to give any extra toilet paper out, and the amount we have in the room should be sufficient. This is the first time I’ve ever stayed at a hotel where they denied additional toilet paper when requested. Front desk service was very disappointing. "
